  1. I've been wondering this for a while now. What's with all the zoidberg and zoidberg-esque avatars these days?

  3. The Canada-Switzerland World Cup match is on TSN4. That's so stupid. It's behind TSN1 and TSN3 showing the US Open and TSN2 showing Giants vs Dodgers.

      Where's Wellwood

      @Spotted Zebra: but is the Giants-Dodgers a big deal? Do they need 2 channels showing golf? If TSN was inclined to, they could make room for a once in a lifetime World Cup on home soil knockout stage match involving Canada on one of their more widely accessible channels.

      Man I love seeing Toronto lose,with all the hype about all those young stars they have and they just continually suck like Edmonton and all their young stars.

      The best thing is, now they are going to be in cap hell ,having to pay these floater stars like Marner and Mathews and Nylander, you know those types of players that absolutely dissappear come the playoffs.

       

      BOO HOO TORONTO.

      It probably depends on how much you use your phone and how important it is to you. I get decent reception for the most part, but when i'm in the library at ubc on a lower floor I get no signal, but a lot of other phone companies do. There are some other places when I'm on the bus where I had no reception as well. I barely use a phone though so I didn't care too much.

      @TheBB. Thanks. I was also wondering how reception was at UBC. I don't use my phone too often either.

      Might be a good idea to pull out your lint trap, and clean inside the dryer, not in the tumbler portion, but behind the walls... excess paper residue + prolonged excess heat = ...well you do the math.

      Gotta play the odds and hope for a loss and the 8th spot.  Better lottery odds and it will give JB one more player in the pool to choose from.

       

      One loss won't hurt the culture in the locker room.

      For Calder purposes though, I do want Petey to score a hat trick on Binnington. But if we lose 4-3, I won't complain

    4. SabreFan1

      SabreFan1

      EP40 could score an own goal tonight and he'd still easily win the Calder.  He's a near ppg rookie with an incredible future ahead of him.

  15. If people needed more reason to support the Leafs, or cheer against the Bruins, same thing, the Utica Comets play the Toronto Marlies in the first round of the AHL playoffs. If Toronto loses in 5, the Marlies will get players back from the Leafs. At least hope the series goes to 6 so that the Marlies don't get reinforcements till at least game 3 of a best of 5.

      My hate for Toronto is too strong, I hope Boston finishes them in Game 5 with Kadri's return. But I'll be watching Utica and the Marlies online, I wanna see our prospects play and get some idea who may be competing for the bigs next season.

      I don't care for either team - Maple Leafs- Bruins.  And it's odd that the Maple Leafs were the 1st team I ever knew.  I was 5, and my grandfather was a Leafs fan. But I am interested on who will win.  This is a very interesting Playoff series.

  16. So who's better, no bias? Gudbranson or Larsson?

      Better by enough to justify the price or not even close?

       

      Hall>>>>>>>McCann, 2nd Rnd pick

    3. Down by the River

      Down by the River

      Larsson is much better but Hall is an elite winger, maybe top 5 for his position. Larsson, although playing a more important position, probably wouldn't rank in the top 20. He's a complimentary piece in a top 2 pairing. In fact, Juolevi could turn out similar to Larsson.

    4. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      I was reading Larsson's eliteprospects description while checking his point production the last few years, and thought to myself, "Sounds like Juolevi".

  17. Can't stand Pratt's insistence on firing WD to hire Claude Julien. If that hypocritical asshole becomes our coach, I may be done with this team. Especially if we sign Lucic too.

      i'm hoping benning gives willie some players and a chance to prove how good he can do...imo, he is the right coach for the rebuild. 

    3. the last outlaw

      the last outlaw

      Doesn't matter who coach is this team will lose. If Willie is let go, it will be 3rd coach in 4 years. This proves it wasn't Torts. Torts didn't get a fair shake here either, imo. I know everyone is quick to bring out about Torts trying to pick a fight with Hartley and Torts defense first style approach. This team doesn't have the talent or right personnel. The blame should be where it belongs on management: Benning and Linden.

       

      Did Pratt give a reason as to why Foolian should be hired as coach? Or it this something he threw out as usual, hoping it sticks.

       

      Funny how I was reading on Habs forum that some Hab fans want Foolian back as their coach. They bring back retread in Therrien and want to replace him with another retread in Julien. Don't think he's that great of a coach.

      All he ever does is whine and cry about the officials.

      Lucic already said he wants to stay in LA. I doubt he's coming here. Watch Canucks go hard after Loui Eriksson.

  21. I think the TSN Plays of the Year was rigged. For at least 7 hours, the votes were stuck at 37,771 for Hank, and 35,686 for Tatar. Even if you add votes, which I did, and you go back later you'll see 37,771 vs 35,686. Of course, the fan base whose player is currently winning feels less incentive to keep voting. Therefore, more Detroit fans vote and since it maintained the 37,771 vs 35,686 score for at least 7 hours, they kept voting at a high rate, which I couldn't see. The results th...

  22. Can someone explain to me why you can't go over on the Price is Right? If I guess $900 and the actual retail price is $899, how the hell is someone who guessed $500 considered to be more correct? Shouldn't it be how far you are from the actual price? Then if the actual price is $900 and two people say $905 and $895, they can give preference to the one who didn't go over.

      It's not practical, no. It's not to purely gauge your price estimation ability. It's there to test how much you are willing to risk to inch closer to the price you think it may cost. It judges your confidence in your price estimation.
